The Crucial BX500 is a budget 2.5-inch SATA SSD built on TLC NAND, rated at 540 MB/s sequential read and 500 MB/s write over SATA 6Gb/s. It is a drop-in upgrade for older laptops and desktops still running hard drives, and it costs far less than premium SATA drives like the Samsung 870 EVO. Reviewers rate it highly for everyday speed and easy setup, but note that it has no DRAM cache, so sustained large writes slow down more than on pricier drives.
